Agreed it doesn't look as good without the hair. Chris Helmsworth as Thor also gave his pecs an airing during the superbowl.

Boring. He just looks like any steroid gym rat you can find pretty much anywhere. I barely recognize his face anymore. And the beautiful thing about his chest was that wonderful fur. Which is gone. So sad.

Please put your shirt back on now. It makes me want to cry.

Agreed, he had one of the most beautiful hairy chests I have ever seen.

You do know that hair grows back, don't you? He may have shaved it off now, but it's not gone forever…

You do realize this is a movie role? He's playing a character. He's an actor. An actor.

I know hair grows back, and I know it's a movie role, but I don't know why he shaved his chest hair.

what did they do to his face? he looks different and kind of generic now.

Yes, if they were going for realness, they would have dyed his har BLOND. So, if they kept him brunette, then they should have kept his GORGEOUS and manly hairy chest. Waxed chests are soooo early 90s porn star. Sorry.

They shaved it cause most people hate body hair. DEAL WITH IT!

I like the transformation from wimp to hunk not sure if the kiddies are going to go for the 1940s period approach

Guys...has it not occured to you he may be wearing a prosthetic? Actors don't "bulk up" overnight without assistance. Both he and Hemsworth as Thor are seen much 'bigger' than in real life. It is the movies...or are you still blinded by lust...?
